About Me

My mission is to immerse myself in diverse experiences, cultivating a broad range of perspectives and fostering a creative outlook. This, in turn, inspires the creation of heart-touching designs.

I am an aspiring graphic designer who thrives on embracing challenges in new environments and stepping out of my comfort zone, a connection that highlights my status as an immigrant who came to Canada at the beginning of my twenties, entirely on my own.

I moved to Canada to experience a new world and to nurture my innate skills. My problem-solving abilities transform into a joy for web design, allowing me to concentrate and pinpoint coding issues effectively. Using my graphic design skills, I aim to create heart-touching artwork inspired by my global travels, exploring contemporary and retro design styles. I also blend the rich cultures of Korea and Canada to infuse uniqueness into my designs.

My strong focus on goals reflects my competitive spirit, conscientious approach, and persistent work ethic. My status also attests that my goal-oriented personality played a pivotal role in achieving my Permanent Residency in Canada without any sponsorship. This accomplishment underscores my determination and adaptability in navigating new challenges and environments.

I am currently working as a Multimedia Graphic Designer at Statements Media Inc. and freelancing at Duet PR, where I assist the team with various graphic design tasks. My work includes creating social media graphics, tote bag designs, event menu cards, and other design projects using Adobe Creative Suite.

My Skills

During my time at Humber College, I have acquired a variety of multimedia skills. These include seamlessly blending DSLR and Premiere Pro for captivating video production, working in a photo studio to master photography with various lighting setups, and completing multiple graphic design projects using various Adobe software. I am excited to showcase my diverse media skills, which have been incorporated into eye-catching billboards, printed fashion lookbooks, and engaging dynamic motion graphics.
